Paul Kersey: Death!
- Alternate versionsGerman VHS release by Cannon/VMP misses an unimportant scene of 3 seconds, probably because of bad master-material. In TV airings, most of the violence has been edited out. It was also BPjM indexed (which means certain sales & advertisement restrictions) in Germany from 1989-2017, and since its deletion from that list, the original "not under 18" rating was eventually restored.

Featured review
After death wish 2 and 3 came out, the series seemed, to well, have a death wish. 2 was unremarkable, and 3 cared more about a very high body count then anything. Unlike in 3, the relationship between Kay Lenz's character and Kersey doesn't seemed forced, doesn't seem like ti was tacked on like the third entry. the fourth entry seemed to be a better level then the previous. Not as good as the first, face it, hardly any action flick with a vigilanty storyline as been as good as the first death wish, the 4th one makes kersey a little more human. You want him to find those responsible for the death of his girlfriends's teen daughter. You cheer when he gets the bad guy. Personally, I would to have loved to have seen a little more interaction between Bronson and Soon Tek-oh, perhaps one of the most underrated supporting actors in movie history. Overall a decent little flick that doesn't try to outsmart itself.
